We warmly invite members of the LCEDN to join the COP27 side event ‘LCEDN at the COP: Voices from the frontline’, chaired by Yacob Mulugetta (UCL) and hosted by the Climate Compatible Growth (CCG) programme. The session will be held in person and virtually on Tuesday 8 November 2022 at 18:30-19:30 EET (GMT+2).
This will be a roundtable discussion session featuring a range of speakers who have been involved in official negotiation sessions and other high-level planning prior to COP and official side events. The discussion will be targeted at LCEDN members unable to attend COP in order to give an in-person perspective from those involved in the discussions/negotiations over the key evolving issues, points of convergence/divergence, etc.
